A highlight of the spa is its outdoor hot springs pool, where guests can relax before or after treatments; spa-goers can also enhance their visit with time spent in the relaxation lounge or in the sauna and steam areas. Richly decorated interiors provide a classic, luxuriant feel, with soothing water fixtures, handsome woodwork, and stone decor.
The extensive spa menu features a fine blend of vinotherapy treatments using products created from indigenous grapes.
